Since I like to call this an adult mac ‘n cheese, it deserves a bold spirit pairing: my husband recommends scotch because of its smoky notes!īut, if scotch isn’t your thing, make yourself your favorite tasty cocktail I’d suggest a tasty old fashioned. I know not everyone is a blue cheese lover (I personally don’t love blue cheese by itself usually), but in this mac ‘n cheese recipe, even those most leery of blue cheese will find themselves loving this dish. They’re the best option for this recipe because the sauce really coats all the spirally noodles and even gets inside the noodles – I cannot stress enough how good this recipe is, I’ve been making it for years! You can choose your favorite noodle for this recipe, but I prefer to use cavatapi. It’s SO GOOD! It has a creamy sauce, which is complimented perfectly by the crunch from the baked bread crumb topping and blue cheese crumbles ribboned throughout. This recipe is my FAVORITE mac and cheese. While macaroni is often thought of as a kids food, this blue cheese mac ‘n cheese recipe is made for adults, full of bold flavors! This isn’t your typical mac ‘n cheese recipe! This recipe takes ordinary macaroni and cheese and takes it up a level.
